Latched Support

Play-Based Learning: The Key to Unlocking a Child’s Potential 90% of a child’s brain develops before age five. That means every interaction, every experience, and every moment of play contributes to a foundation for lifelong learning. At Latched Support, we believe learning should be joyful, engaging, and interactive—because when children play, they aren’t just having fun; they’re developing critical thinking, problem-solving, and social skills that will shape their future. That’s why we’re hosting the Little Learners Easter Event, a day where families can explore, learn, and connect through hands-on activities designed to spark curiosity and school readiness. ?? Creative Play Stations – Encouraging imagination and skill-building ?? Sensory & STEM Activities – Boosting cognitive growth in a fun way ?? Parent-Child Engagement – Strengthening learning at home through interactive experiences Why Your Support Matters When we invest in early learning, we set children up for greater success in school, relationships, and life.

Investing in Early Development: How ASQ Assessments Empower Families At Latched Support, we believe that early intervention and education are the keys to lifelong success. That’s why we offer Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) assessments to help parents track their child’s developmental milestones and ensure they’re on the path to healthy growth. But we don’t stop at assessment. We turn insights into action. How We Support Families Beyond the ASQ Assessment ? Personalized, Play-Based Goals – Every child develops at their own pace. Our Family Support Specialists work closely with parents to create tailored activities that encourage growth in a fun, engaging way. ? Empowering Parents with Tools and Knowledge – We equip caregivers with simple, effective strategies to support their child’s cognitive, social, and motor development through everyday play. ? Building Confidence for Lifelong Learning – By giving parents the tools to nurture their child’s abilities, we’re setting the foundation for future success in school and beyond. Why This Matters Developmental screening matters because early identification of challenges can lead to early intervention—and early intervention leads to better outcomes. By supporting this initiative, you’re helping families gain access to crucial resources that can make a lifelong difference. Join Us in Creating Brighter Futures Latched Support is committed to ensuring every child gets the best start in life—and every parent has the tools they need to help them thrive. But we can’t do it alone. ?? We’re looking for partners, donors, and advocates who believe in the power of early childhood development. Whether it’s funding resources, sponsoring programs, or spreading awareness, your support makes an impact. ?? Let’s connect and create opportunities for every child to reach their full potential!

Empowering Dads: The Impact of Latched Support’s Fatherhood Initiative At Latched Support, we believe that engaged fathers are key to building stronger families and communities. That’s why our Fatherhood Initiative is designed to empower dads to take an active, confident role in parenting—from prenatal care to early childhood development. Why the Fatherhood Initiative Matters Fathers play a vital role in their child’s development and overall family stability. Through this initiative, we aim to: ?? Boost Father Engagement: Encourage dads to actively participate in their family’s well-being from the very beginning. ?? Empower Fathers as Caregivers: Equip dads with the knowledge and skills they need to support their child’s growth and thrive in their role as caregivers. ?? Improve Family Stability: Promote positive parenting practices that foster a nurturing home environment. ?? Expand Access to Support Services: Provide underserved communities with the tools and resources fathers need to succeed. How We’re Making a Difference ?? Educational Workshops and Seminars Covering topics like newborn care, creating birth plans, budgeting, and mental well-being, our programs prepare dads for every step of the parenting journey. ?? Community Building Activities Events like our Dads Only Pick-up Game foster peer support, camaraderie, and a sense of belonging among fathers. ??? Resource Distribution We provide essential tools and resources for parenting education, mental health, and career development to strengthen fathers’ roles as providers and caregivers. Looking to the Future Through sponsorships and community support, the Fatherhood Initiative is creating lasting change. We’re helping dads become engaged, capable caregivers who contribute to their family’s health and stability—particularly in underserved communities where these resources are needed most. Join Us We’re proud to thank all who have supported the Fatherhood Initiative so far—you’re helping us build stronger families, one father at a time. If you’re interested in partnering with us or learning more, let’s connect! Together, we can create a brighter future for dads, families, and our communities. ??

The Life-Saving Impact of Car Seat Safety Education Every parent wants to keep their child safe—but did you know that using the right car seat reduces the risk of injury in crashes by up to 71% for infants and 54% for toddlers? ???? At Latched Support, we are committed to ensuring that every family has the knowledge and resources they need to keep their little ones protected on the road. That’s why we offer our Car Seat Safety Program, providing hands-on education and virtual sessions to teach parents the essentials of proper car seat use. Why Car Seat Safety Education Matters ?? Correct Installation Saves Lives – Studies show that nearly 60% of car seats are installed incorrectly. A properly secured seat can mean the difference between minor injuries and a devastating outcome in an accident. ?? Choosing the Right Car Seat for Each Stage – Every child’s needs are different. Our program helps parents understand which car seat is appropriate based on their child’s age, weight, and height. ?? Empowering Parents with Confidence – Many caregivers feel overwhelmed by car seat guidelines. Our sessions break it down in a simple, easy-to-follow way so that every parent feels confident in securing their child properly. Making a Difference in Our Community Through our free educational sessions, we’ve helped countless families learn how to install, adjust, and safely use car seats—ensuring that children in our community are better protected on the road. ?? One key takeaway from our last session: ?? Always check that your child’s car seat is properly installed and that the harness fits snugly—loose straps can put them at risk in a crash. Join Us in Promoting Child Safety ?? Whether you’re a parent, a caregiver, or a community partner, you can help make a difference! ?? Attend one of our upcoming Car Seat Safety Sessions ?? Spread awareness about car seat safety in your community ?? Support our mission through sponsorship or collaboration Let’s work together to reduce preventable injuries and keep children safe on the road. ?? ??
